A $22 million hunk of rock

The northeastern part of Red Rock Island offers views of the Richmond shoreline and Richmond-San Rafael Bridge.

In a challenging real estate market, Steven Higbee has a unique property he’d like to sell you: The San Francisco Bay’s only private island with income potential and one-of-a-kind views.

Red Rock Island, located west of the Richmond shoreline and south of the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge, is for sale at a price of $22 million. The price includes the rights to surface rock and buried minerals.

“Most people don’t know it’s a privately held island,” says realtor Higbee, an agent with Creative Property Services of Santa Rosa. “They think it’s just a rock sitting out there that belongs to some piece of the government.”
